Marches Meander Thank you
A big big big thank you for Marches. My first ride out on my own rather than being a pillion, and i must say it was the best!!!!!!
Even though I only did half the ride and ducked out at the lunch stop as it was only 25 miles from home. I had a great time and can’t wait for another one. Thank you to Ed for organising a great ride, the roads were great and very manageable for me so the guys going at a quicker speed they must have been fantastic!!!!! Thank you to Andy (El Saxo) for being TEC you didn’t moan once at the speed I was going at and was great thank you. And a big thank you to everybody else you all encouraged me at every opportunity possible and anybody that over took me (not many ) but you all were very thoughtful of me and didn’t scare the sh!t out of me. Done a total of 156 mile by the time I got home...... which I think isn’t bad going!!!!!! Anyway thank you again!!!!! Lily x |

Hey Lily, you did great!!! Really well. Don't underestimate your own ability.
Yep thanks indeed to Andy who did a sterling job as TEC, nobody got lost. It was a terrific ride, we even had sunshine for most of the way Ended up back at Daryl's house for tea so thanks to him and Beverley. |

Re: Marches Meander Thank you
Lily I was amazed at how well you rode today. For someone that only passed their test on Friday you showed a natural ability. Good luck with the rest of your riding, enjoy & again, well done

Re: Marches Meander Thank you
+1 on being a great day. Special thanks to Pete for leading me and Nemo down - I think I learned more about riding my bike in one 55 mile blast than I've done in the past 2 months, and it helped my wet-weather confidence loads.
El Saxo also got a great run leading us back up the A49, so he got his fun blast. What was scary was just how slow all the 50mph zones seemed on the way back :-S |

Re: Marches Meander Thank you
Hey lily!
Cheers again for letting us crash at your place. You rode very good considering you only just passed. You was/are better than me when i first passed my test, and my instructor told my i should have a 1000cc or a 1300cc for my talent level!
